First Week of School

We made it through the first week of school. It was a long week. Whatever happened to half days for kindergarten or starting mid-week? I found out that S is one of only 2 new students in her grade. This makes it difficult to make friends, especially when there is an odd number of girls. I also found out that she has a lunch buddy and that she really likes her. I think I will have lunch with her next week sometime just to see how she is doing. She still comes home happy, so I am optimistic.

We go back for hopefully our last re-evaluation for NR. We haven't been doing our program since the first month after our last eval. S had to look at the arm she had extended during a pattern. Since her eyes alternate turning out, I could never tell if she was looking. I clarified with our practitioner that she needed to be looking and she said yes. I decided to wait until after her eye appt to continue. After our appt, we left for China a week later. We have been trying to catch up ever since. We also have vision exercises to do, we haven't started those either. Hopefully we will get set up to start this weekend. Essentially, we are done with NR, this new program is really just extra. I think we are going to have to call it to an end even if it isn't official. I was hoping to be finished with all therapy before the start of this school year, but it doesn't look like that is going to happen. I just can't do it all, and the vision needs to take priority. I hope this new vision therapy resolves the issues for both of my girls, especially since we are still paying for our previous vision therapy. Ugh!
